Original subtitles

Mr. Kim.

It feels odd to be here...

when I have no ties to this neighborhood.

I was just about to call you when you appeared.

What for?

It's because of the woman...

that I fell for at first sight...

and am still in love with.

That woman...

is someone that anyone could fall for.

- "That woman"? - But...

it's very unilateral of you to talk as if she's still your woman.

I'll pretend like I didn't hear that.

Let's wait and see if it'll continue to sound unilateral...

or actually become a fact.

What is it that you want to say?

She's someone you can't handle.

You're just an ordinary, 30-year-old man.

You should meet someone that suits you.

There's no right or wrong when it comes to loving someone.

Mr. Jung.

No one considers whether or not someone is suitable...

to fall in love with beforehand.

Love begins way before one can even think that far.

If I must endure hardship in order to protect her,

I will not run away from it, whatever it may be.

Isn't that considered...

as foolishness?

It's courage.

Okay, I hope you'll continue to be courageous.

And thanks to you, I've become really motivated.

Let's see what kind of things will end up happening...

because of that courage of yours.

Is there more you need to say to me?

No, we can take time to talk about the rest...

since we'll be seeing each other often.

Bye, then.

It's cold.

I'm sorry for visiting you out of the blue.

No, it's okay. I'm the one who should've gone to say hello,

but I figured it might make you feel uncomfortable,

so I just sent over a bottle of wine.

We enjoyed it thanks to you. Thank you.

Don't mention it.

I'm not very good with words,

so I'm not good at beating around the bush.

Feel free to say what you need.

When I first saw an article regarding Jin Hyuk,

I figured it was nothing serious, so I didn't ask him anything.

But he seems pretty serious about you.

So I'm worried about what I should do.

I'm pretty unusual, aren't I?

It could be that you're unique, or it could be that he's normal.

But it's not something I can judge so rashly.

Jin Hyuk is very thoughtful.

Hearing you say that...

makes me understand why Jin Hyuk is so thoughtful.

My son's much better than me.

I asked Jin Hyuk...

if I should cheer him on or if I should be worried.

He wants me to support him,

but parents always worry first.

You must already know that it'll lead both of you...

into hardships, right?

If it's going to end up with just heartaches,

I wonder if it's right for your feelings...

to grow any bigger.

I didn't come here to make you feel uncomfortable.

I'm sorry.

No,

I understand how you feel.

You're his father.

The thing about love is that only you two matter.

But the path you two must take...

looks too rough to be led just on your feelings.

Would it be okay for me to support you two...

like Jin Hyuk said?

When you call us special,

I know you mean that I'm insufficient.

I know it's hard, but I'd appreciate it...

if you'd keep on watching us.

The players on the ring are the ones who have it hard.

It's nothing for the onlookers.

(Episode 12)

My place is a one-meter perimeter around you.

That's where I'll always be.

(Soo Hyun)

I want to see you.

It's out of this world, isn't it?

It's spicy and chewy. It's nice.

I told you.

What's this? Is this your best? Just look at it.

There's still so much meat on it.

Watch me carefully.

You have to eat at least this much to say that you did your best.

You look like a fatty.

I don't want to eat it like that.

I'm so moved.

I was asking to see your face through a video call,

but you actually let me see you in person.

I don't look as good on camera.

I really wanted to see you today.

We're on the same page.

I especially missed you today too.

Really?

This means we're at a pretty safe stage.

Even if someone tries, we wouldn't be swayed.

Does someone want to set you up on a blind date?

Even if you go on a million blind dates, I doubt...

you'll meet someone like me.

- Wrong. - What? Are you saying you will?

I'm saying I'd never go on a blind date.

Okay, let's start our second half of the dinner.

The rice balls are key to chicken feet.

We're only having chicken feet, but it feels like a course meal.

Knock, knock. Please open the door.

Here it comes. Open up.

Look at you. I'm proud.

- It's really good. - Isn't it?

Soo Hyun.

Why do you like me?

Did something happen? You're acting strange today.

Don't change the subject. I'm being serious.

Why do you like Kim Jin Hyuk?

Because he's Kim Jin Hyuk.

There's only one Kim Jin Hyuk in this world.

Gosh.

I thought it was going to keep me up all night,

but I'm going to sleep well.

Something happened for sure. You're acting strange.

I don't know why, but I want to stay with you today.

I better sleep over at your place.

It was my fault for coming here.

Go home. It's already late.

No, I'll come and help you go to sleep.

I'll leave quietly once you fall asleep.

- I sleep well on my own. - With sleeping pills?

I'm the human sleeping pill.

Human sleeping pill.

When will you get home if you come with me now?

Come on, Ms. Cha. What are you imagining?

What are you imagining?

When you fall asleep,

I'll just watch you sleep soundly, then leave.

I'm just saying it's really late,

so how will you get back home?

You should go now. It's harder to sleep with you here.

Move over a little bit. Hurry up.

Your mattress is really nice.

I can't sleep because you're bothering me.

Why would you be bothered when I'm being such a gentleman?

This is unfair.

Just have some tea before you go. Come on and get up.

I had to control myself last time,

and now you're telling me to have tea and then leave?

I was really tired today,

and now you're making me wake up even more.

You're heavy. Move.

Gosh.

It's cold out, but she won't even let me sleep here.

I'm the human sleeping pill, but my reputation was ruined.

By the way,

it's really comfortable here.

It feels like I belong here.

Even if Secretary Jang visits, she doesn't sleep here.

I never had two people sleep on this bed.

The bed finally met its owner.

It's nice.

It's so comfortable I might fall asleep first.

Get up before you fall asleep. Okay?

Come on. Go home.

Don't get excited, and just go to sleep.

Excited? You're ridiculous.

Stay like this just for a little while.

I'm really happy right now.

I wish I could...

fall asleep like this every day.

It'll happen to us one day, right?

What's this? Why aren't you answering me?

I pictured it in my head, and it was nice.

Is he really a human sleeping pill?

He's a human stimulant.

I was worried you lost affection for the company's affairs.

But you've come for today's shareholders' meeting.

Of course, since it's an important agenda.

I really didn't expect Mr. Jung to make...

that kind of decision.

We have to save the hotel.

Excuse me.

Who will join as the Co-CEO then?

I heard that...

it might be CEO Jung Woo Suk.

- What? - What is this nonsense?

What about his position at Taegyeong Electronics?

- He'll hold both positions. - Both?

Let's see what kind of things will end up happening...

because of that courage of yours.

We can take time to talk about the rest...

since we'll be seeing each other often.

Are you really okay?

No, I'm not.

I'm not familiar with operating a company,

but it's not right to decide things so one-sidedly.

Are they even aware who built this company? And suddenly a Co-CEO?

("Reading a Book That Changes Your Life")

(Jung Woo Suk)

(Jung Woo Suk)

Thank you.

My headache is killing me.

How is Ms. Cha?

You know her. She gets quieter the more she suffers.

She might get hospitalized if she keeps holding it in like that.

What is this so out of the blue?

Everything went so smoothly until now.

That's the problem. Everything went too well.

I'm so sick of Chairwoman Kim of Taegyeong.

I heard Chairwoman Kim may not be the one behind this.

It seems Mr. Choi met with the shareholders of Taegyeong.

Then what about the shareholders for this hotel?

Who met them and persuaded them?

I know. When Chairwoman Kim...

tried to take the shares of the people on Ms. Cha's side,

no one even budged.

But why did they betray Ms. Cha this time?

They're so disloyal.

I heard CEO Jung Woo Suk might be coming.

Do you think it's true?

Why would he join as the Co-CEO?

This is no place for him.

Jin Hyuk.

Hye In.

It seems as if a new CEO is arriving.

(CEO Cha Soo Hyun)

Thank you for greeting me as the CEO of Donghwa Hotel.

I know I don't have experience in this field, and you're all worried.

I will discuss matters with the Co-CEO, Ms. Cha,

and try my best to operate this hotel.

Although a majority of shareholders agreed, there are some opposed.

What is the reason you are going this far?

I'll tell you it's for the stable operation of Donghwa Hotel.

This used to be merely a 4-star hotel,

but it's Ms. Cha who raised its reputation to this day.

- I agree. - But if you suddenly get involved,

- it's unreasonable. - Wait.

It's already been decided and this is our first meeting.

There is no need for this type of conversation.

That's because not everyone has agreed to this decision.

A while ago, this hotel was faced with a crisis.

Due to the hotel in Cuba.

Who was the one who solved that incident?

Was it Ms. Cha?

I heard it was thanks to the wits of some new hire.

Are you sure...

this hotel is being managed properly?

I believe the experience of two CEOs...

will produce a synergy effect.

(Donghwa Hotel, CEO)

I thought you'd come to the meeting this morning.

Is it still a bit uncomfortable for you?

What do you intend on doing with Taegyeong Electronics?

I don't know how you think of me, but I'm a multi-player.

Managing one more hotel won't slow me down.

What is your intent?

If I must say,

protecting you up-close?

Why would I need your protection?

Because the incoming wind might sweep you away.

Let's drink tea like this often,

and chat about the future of Donghwa Hotel.

Taegyeong... No,

Relying on your mother and coming in here so easily...

is embarrassing.

It wasn't that easy.

Do you know how carefully I planned this out?

And please don't say I'm relying on my mom.

She's probably throwing a fit by now.

What is it you want to do?

I want to help you.

Do you think this is helping me?

Give me some time and let's see...

if I will be of help or not.

From now on, make a reservation at the office if you want to see me.

Let's do that.

Since it's my first day, how about lunch?

If you're finished, please leave, Mr. Jung.

I'll call you if I have any questions.

Just call the relevant department.

Then...

shall I go see the relevant departments?

Hello.

Hello, sir.

I'm sorry for barging in suddenly.

I believe the heart of a hotel lies within the PR Team.

I came to say hi.

I heard you're the talented man who solved the Cuba crisis.

I look forward to your work.

It was nothing.

I just grasped an opportunity.

You're talented and modest too.

There are so many nice ways to describe you.

You're flattering me.

Thank you.

Although I'm not familiar with this industry, I'll try my best.

I look forward to working with all of you.

Are you looking for something specific?

Yes, something soothing that isn't too big.

How about this?

It's lemon cypress.

It gives off a scent when touched.

(From Boyfriend)

It's known to have a lot of phytoncide.

It'll lift up your mood.

Think of it as my head and pat it at times.

It'll give off a good scent.

(Soo Hyun)

The scent is nice.

It's definitely soothing.

I'm touched.

Think of it as a miniature version of me...

and give it a lot of love.

Hye In, are you done with the report for Ms. Cha?

Yes, ma'am.

Here you go.

Good job.

I'm off to see Ms. Cha.

- Sure. - Sure thing.

Let's talk honestly now that Mrs. Kim is gone.

- Don't. - Don't do what?

- Jin Hyuk. - Yes?

Wasn't it a nasty move by CEO Jung?

Him bulldozing his way in...

won't make you put up the white flag.

What does that have to do with Jin Hyuk?

Taegyeong's been after this hotel for years.

This is the app we newly formed a partnership with.

We're planning to begin the partnership...

with this year's White Day event.

(Credit card issued in Korea)

(Booking confirmed)

Did you just book a room?

It's the only way to know if the app is decent.

How about we...

add photos of the cooking on the event banner?

The visual aspect will be more appealing.

We already have a photo shoot set up with our pastry chefs.

Good.

Ms. Cha, are you all right?

You're probably not.

- No, I'm good. - I doubt it.

Try patting the plant.

It definitely calms you down.

It doesn't for me.

Mr. Nam is here. Should I tell him to wait?

No, we were actually done.

I'll get going then.

Is it that hard to return a pleasant greeting?

It's what makes her so charming.

So, did you look into it?

It's Mr. Kim's call log. I took a look...

and he repeatedly called one number before the incident.

He called it again three times after going into hiding too.

The number belongs to someone else now,

so we need to know who had it before him.

- Thank you, Mr. Nam. - Don't mention it.

(Call log)

Who knew there was a plant just like me?

It's plump and adorable.

Are you blaming yourself?

- Yes. - Taegyeong's...

always been after Donghwa Hotel. It's not your fault.

Mr. Jung came to see me.

You?

He told me to wait and see...

how things will unfold from here.

I couldn't understand what he was talking about,

but now I do.

I just don't get it.

They divorced ages ago, so why is he doing this?

Don't let it get to you. He lives in a different world after all.

I'm more worried about Ms. Cha.

I'll be fine.

I'm missing 20 dollars from the register.

You bought tangerines earlier today.

Be careful, will you?

What about this? Is the color too bold?

- I'm sorry. - Goodness.

It's not like you to raise your voice.

Is there something going on?

Why get angry when there's nothing fragile inside?

Is our friendship that shallow?

- I'm sorry. - Actually,

a lot happened at work today.

Yes, of course. Making money is never easy.

It's why my job here is so stressful.

Try working elsewhere then.

They'll kick you out after one shift.

Should I look for another job?

- Be my guest. - Come on.

Here.

Are you being nice to me now?

Yes, it's a nice drink she's pouring.

That was an awful joke.

Am I the only one who finds it funny?

Hye In, don't be mad.

Come in.

I'm sorry for calling you over. I know you're quite busy.

It's fine. Soo Hyun doesn't have anywhere to go today.

Woo Suk joining as CEO...

must've made her a mess.

She stills seem quite composed though.

And she isn't skipping meals.

Really?

Soo Hyun seems to have changed.

She's bolder now.

I see that you don't know your daughter well.

Soo Hyun has always had guts.

She's just finally being herself again.

I'm worried about Taegyeong...

showing its teeth though.

It's like it's trying to swallow her up again.

As her father, I won't let that happen.

You can't make many moves with the election coming up.

The presidential election is important,

but my child comes first.

Have you eaten?

Yes.

I'm sure what I said is finally sinking in.

I said I'd see you around.

I don't think it's something to sink in.

I see it hasn't hit you then.

Is it because the issue is too big for a mere employee to grasp?

There are many things I can do now.

You'll get to see it whether you like it or not.

Who is this for?

This only seems to be beneficial to you.

That's right. This is solely for my benefit.

That day,

you said you still loved her.

So you remember.

Is this how one acts out of love?

It's desperation.

I couldn't just sit back and watch,

so I'm desperately trying to protect what's mine.

It's either your bravery or my desperate efforts.

One will lose.

This isn't right.

This hotel is what Ms. Cha lives for.

Well, Soo Hyun gives my life purpose too.

Does that answer your question?

I don't know about your past...

or your past feelings.

I wouldn't dare to judge it.

However, deliberately hurting someone...

is never welcomed.

So?

My wealth or power does not match yours.

I'm an average 30-year-old male.

I will protect her in my own way.

Some are the same and some are different.

You'll soon find out...

what's the same and what's different.

I hope that you're a reasonable man.

[VIU Ver] tvN E12 Encounter / Boyfriend "I Cherish You Very Much" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

(Signature, CEO)

I gave it my all.

The hotel was given to me as alimony,

but to me, it was everything.

(Signature, CEO)

(CEO Cha Soo Hyun)

(CEO Cha Soo Hyun)

So what is it that you wanted to say?

- Are you all right? - Me?

About what?

You like Jin Hyuk.

- I don't. - You do.

- Are you embarrassed? - This is absurd.

Go ahead and eat, or I'm finishing it off.

3 years in high school and 4 years in university.

I thought you might be over him once he came back from the army,

but you still looked at him the same way.

You can't fool me.

Stop acting up. I said, I don't like him.

Don't be like that.

You're making all those years become worthless.

Oh, right. I need to make a phone call. Wait here.

Stop sniffling and blow your nose.

This is so annoying.

Is it annoying?

Gosh, look at you all sad.

Why can't everyone be a bit more laid back like me?

What do you say? Do you want me to install a dating app for you?

What if I end up meeting Dae Chan?

Your imagination is unbelievable.

I'm going to kill you if you tell Jin Hyuk.

Let's go back inside. It's cold.

The chicken will get cold.

Gosh, it's cold.

I'd like a steak sandwich with extra cheese and a salad.

Are there any vegetables you don't want in your sandwich?

You can add everything. To go, please.

You can pay here.

You would've skipped dinner if I didn't ask if you ate or not.

You should put your boyfriend to good use.

You could've asked me to buy you food.

You show up like this even if I don't ask.

Do you pat this often?

Yes, I really love the scent.

Then why do you still seem so melancholy?

I'm not melancholy.

I'm even enjoying the sandwich you got me.

You'll get mad if I apologize, right?

Who? Why would you apologize?

I feel sorry toward you.

Why?

I feel like this is all happening...

because of me.

You have nothing to do with the fact...

that I used to be a family member of Taegyeong...

and that I'm still at war with them.

I'm sad because you're at war.

I feel like my feelings for you made you get in trouble.

Your feelings for me...

are what heal me.

If I didn't have you by my side,

I would've been scared and nervous.

You told me that I helped you become clear about what love is.

But thanks to you,

my thoughts on fear have become vague.

I learned what love is through books.

But it's all clear to me now.

I'm scared.

I'm scared that you might get hurt.

I'll stay by your side and protect you...

until the day you die.

I love you.

I...

cherish you very much.

I love you.

(Jin Hyuk)

Hey, Jin Hyuk.

Where are you? Home?

I'm at the office.

Why? It's the weekend.

Because someone won't spend time with me.

Gosh, you should've told me.

I have millions of things I want to do with you.

Stop bluffing.

Where are you? It sounds like you're outside.

I'm waiting for the bus. I'm on my way to visit Ms. Lee.

I heard she hurt her leg.

She got hurt?

Yes, she apparently sprained her ankle.

How?

Please send her my regards once you meet her.

Okay.

Should I spend time with you today?

I'm a little busy with work today.

When will I get to do the millions of things I want to do with you?

I guess we can do everything until you become a grandma.

Okay, sure.

I should live a long life.

The bus will be arriving shortly.

My bus is here. I'll call you again later.

My gosh, this place makes great food.

How do you know this place?

There is a lot of information on social media about nice restaurants.

Did you close the store today?

Jin Myung's pretty good at managing the restaurant.

Hey, thank you for making time to meet me.

Well, I felt bad about leaving you last time...

without even eating a meal with you.

No, it's okay.

I thought about it,

and I could totally understand how you must've felt.

It's not like I did anything right.

While we're on the subject...

How about we start seeing each other?

What's this?

Ms. Jang, I bought a rose that looked as beautiful as you...

while I was at the market early in the morning.

From Lee Dae Chan.

Okay, sure.

Instead, we both shouldn't be too expectant.

Your outfit tells me that you were expecting for something to happen.

What are you talking about? I always dress like this.

Plus, I dressed down because things aren't going well at work.

Do you always go to work looking so beautiful?

- Your hair kind of changed. - Gosh.

Even the shape of your head is so beautiful.

- Did your mother... - Let's eat.

Okay. Enjoy your food.

It's nice.

That was nice.

(Chan's Moon Snails)

One second.

Mi Jin.

(Lee Dae Chan)

No, no.

Yes. Hello?

I suddenly got a stomachache.

No, no.

I'm really okay.

I'll call you later.

(Chan's Moon Snails)

Mi Jin!

- Yes. - It's cold.

Hurry and come here.

Okay.

I went to the washroom.

(Chan's Moon Snails)

It's terrible that you're not feeling well.

I didn't know what the symptoms were,

so I told them you have indigestion.

Here, take this.

- Okay. - Gosh.

Did you get nervous for our first date?

Go on, take it.

Also, you only need to take two pills.

Yes, good.

Good girl.

Mi Jin, you're like a baby.

You need someone to feed you your pills.

I finished it.

There you are.

What is this?

I thought it'd be best to visit her in person myself.

Gosh, Jin Hyuk...

is happy to see Ms. Cha,

while I'm happy to see the food from Jin Hyuk's mom.

Why did she pack so much? My goodness.

It was worth hurting my leg.

Do you want to have a taste?

Oh, right.

You hardly touched your seolleongtang last time.

You must have a small stomach. I'm jealous.

I have to go on a diet too.

I probably fell from the roof because I'm too heavy.

- Is your leg okay? - Yes.

Hey, you should invite Ms. Cha home sometime.

She'll fall in love with your mom's food.

That'd be nice.

What do you think? Should I set the date?

Why are you so worried?

You just have to go for it with things like this.

If you keep on hesitating,

you'll never be able to cross the line.

I want you to visit when you get the chance.

Gosh.

Gosh.

Your mother must be a good cook.

Her dishes looked amazing earlier.

Jin Myung and I didn't realize it when we were young,

but we realized when we started to eat out more.

We realized that our mom is a talented cook.

I was always jealous of kids with mom's who'd cook for them.

My mom doesn't cook.

Then come visit our house.

My mom makes them fast, but they're very delicious.

It makes me mad because I think it might be true.

Why are you getting mad?

Ms. Lee closed all the tupperware earlier,

and that really upset me.

Did she perform an endoscopy on me?

How does she know if my stomach is small or not?

Why didn't she wait for me to answer?

It would be nice to let me have a taste.

Seolleongtang is different from homemade food.

Having a taste won't make me full.

You're so cute when you do this.

You act like a student.

Maybe a middle school kid.

- Stop joking around. - Okay.

I don't know why I'm so weak when it comes to homemade food.

You're so cute, Soo Hyun.

- Enjoy. - Thank you.

- Have a good day. - Thank you. Bye.

Gosh, how's your leg?

I'm totally fine.

I can take off the temporary cast in two days.

I'm glad it's not serious.

I want to return the tupperware...

and give you some nice tea.

Could I join your family for dinner?

It's you who doesn't budge. You know you're always welcome.

I'll ask my wife to cook something up.

Gosh. I'm already salivating.

By the way,

would it be too much pressure if the CEO...

of Jin Hyuk's company comes along?

I kind of boasted to her that your wife's cooking is amazing.

Have you met her?

She visits time to time.

She was here when you sent over the food.

I heard that you already know.

Jin Hyuk told me.

It feels strange to see you here.

Why did you go out of your way to do this?

I want to clean things up for good.

When will this war end...

if the lawyers keep on going back and forth?

Can I assume you'll clean things up the way I want?

I don't know how you persuaded the directors in favor of Soo Hyun,

but if you plan on doing something...

differently from what I expect,

then I won't go easy on you even if you're my son.

Please continue to observe me.

Let me be clear about some areas before we move on.

Soo Hyun...

won't step foot in this household ever again.

Why aren't you saying anything?

You never know what will happen.

It's hard to be so assured.

She has a messy private life. I won't let her in my house.

Taegyeong will become a laughingstock.

Since it came to this,

all you have to do is take care of the hotel.

Leave the hotel to me.

Okay. I'll be watching you.

Hello?

What's there to check after all these years?

You can just send it right away.

You can mail it to CEO Cha Soo Hyun at the Donghwa Hotel.

Yes. Okay.

What are you sending her?

The outfit she should wear for your dad's death anniversary.

- Mother. - It's a yearly event. What is it?

You won't let her step foot in our house.

Why would you make her come to his death anniversary?

I'll make sure she's there this year.

- Please stop. - Strangely,

I feel like...

this year's death anniversary might become symbolic.

Will Soo Hyun attend or not?

It'll be a huge issue.

What do you mean?

If she doesn't come,

that means she really intends to turn her back on us.

And if she does,

I'll make sure to bring both her and her father down.

I will make sure to put both of them in agony.

Do you think the smart Soo Hyun can avoid coming that day?

I think it'll be fun.

I was reminded of my family,

so I delivered bungeoppangs even at the busiest hour.

I was working when I could smell the bungeoppang.

That's when I was reminded of you guys.

- I'm sweet, right? - Why did you buy five?

We'll be torn apart for the last one.

Mom, pass me a knife. Let's divide this by four.

Just cut it into three. You can go buy a new one.

Gosh, our family has...

zero love.

Ms. Lee called me this morning.

Can you make her braised kimchi?

She really likes that.

Sure, why not? It's not hard.

I've been wanting to see her, so this is good.

Her temporary cast is coming off in two days.

She's almost better now.

I'm glad she got well so fast.

Then should we do it that day?

She can visit when she takes off her cast.

Let's do that.

Why don't you invite your CEO too?

What?

We enjoyed the wine. We should thank her.

No way.

Why bother?

It'd be so awkward for her.

Ask her if she's free.

Ask her, hurry.

Okay.

Don't be silly, honey.

Why would she come to our house?

There are so many nice restaurants at the hotel.

What's wrong with our home? Everyone lives this way.

If we received something, we should pay her back.

Right, don't worry about it, Mom.

We don't even know if she'll come or not.

Usually, girls find it uncomfortable...

I know I'm the best brother ever.

Weren't you eating this?

It doesn't matter. I can eat anything.

Do you have time tomorrow night?

Ms. Lee is coming over for dinner,

and it'd be nice if you could come if you have time.

(Do you have time tomorrow night?)

I wonder if it's right for your feelings...

to grow any bigger.

When you call us special,

I know you mean that I'm insufficient.

I know it's hard,

but I'd appreciate it if you'd keep on watching us.

(That sounds great.)

That sounds great.

Am I finally eating a homemade meal?

I feel nervous.

How will it be when you come to my house?

I'll send you the address.

You can park nearby and call me.

I'll come out and meet you.

I'm so nervous.

Shall we have a talk?

I have to look courteous, but not in a heavy way.

Something too bright won't be appropriate in the winter...

and something too extravagant might seem rude.

What should I wear?

Wear? Are you going somewhere?

I have an important appointment.

- When do you need it by? - Tomorrow night.

Why?

Tomorrow is Chairman Jung's death anniversary.

They sent you an outfit, and I put in the car.

Why don't you attend it until this year?

Mr. Jung is suddenly a threat to us.

You should be more cautious.

I understand. You can get back to work.

Okay.

Mr. Nam.

- It's been a while. - How have you been?

You don't have time to hang out with me now that you're dating?

No way.

- Where are you going? - To recycle.

I guess that job is for all the newbies.

It's been a long time, Mr. Nam.

I wanted to go see you, and didn't expect to see you here.

There's no need to come see me.

Of course I should, since Ms. Cha relies on you a lot.

I'll be seeing you tomorrow too.

Did you hear tomorrow is my father's death anniversary?

I hope you drive Ms. Cha safely.

As always, I hope you keep up the good work.

It's either your bravery or my desperate efforts.

One will lose.

I will protect her in my own way.

Mr. Nam.

Can I drive Ms. Cha home tonight?

Of course you can. Why not?

Where shall I take you?

I have bad news.

Ms. Lee came up with something urgent tomorrow...

so our home meal is canceled.

We can do it on another night.

You said love became clear to you thanks to me.

Let's see what kind of things will end up happening...

because of that courage of yours.

I love you.

- My apologies. - You can just take it.

There's no need.

Am I some part-timer or what?

It's a call from Chan's Moon Snails.

I heard Jin Hyuk is having guests over at his home...

so his brother won't be able to make it to work.

He's asking if I can work instead.

He's unbelievable.

He's having guests over tonight?

Yes. That's what I heard.

Why?

It's nothing.

I'll sign this after checking it one more time.

Okay. Call for me when you're finished.

Ms. Lee came up with something urgent tomorrow.

We can do it on another night.

I'm sad because you're at war.

I feel like my feelings for you made you get in trouble.

(Mrs. Banpo-dong)

(Mrs. Banpo-dong)

(Mrs. Banpo-dong)

(Mrs. Banpo-dong)

- Yes? - Are you at the beauty salon?

No.

Why haven't you gone yet?

Soo Hyun, please.

Please go today. Think of it as a favor for me.

Please, just this one day. I'm begging you.

Just until the elections. Okay?

Please, Soo Hyun.

I'm no longer a family member of Taegyeong.

There's no reason for you to be like this.

You may be divorced,

but don't mistakenly think that cuts off all ties between our families.

You'll...

remain as a member of Taegyeong even after you die.

Once you set foot in our family,

you'll forever be a member of our family. Keep that in mind.

Just go for today. Think of your father.

Suck it in for today and please go.

Will there be guests today?

Will CEO Cha show up?

It'll be front-page news whether she does or doesn't.

Are you sure Ms. Cha isn't coming due to work at the office?

- Yes. - Dae Chan asked Mi Jin...

to fill in for a shift this afternoon.

She told him that she had to escort Ms. Cha...

to an event held by Ms. Cha's former in-laws.

That's not the case. She has an important meeting.

Call Ms. Lee and see if she's almost here.

Sure.

Mr. Nam, I'll be out shortly.

- Isn't that Ms. Cha's car? - My gosh.

- Goodness. - She's here.

Ms. Cha, could you please say a few words?

Ms. Cha!

Ms. Cha's car has arrived.

Didn't Ms. Lee say she was close by?

Gosh, the soup will get cold.

Did you leave some for Dae Chan?

Yes, I made a whole pot. Take him some later.

Sure. Anyway, what's taking Ms. Lee so long?

- That must be Ms. Lee. - I'll get it.

Sure.

The food looks great.

Ms. Lee, was there a lot of traffic?

My meeting got canceled.

I'm in trouble.

Why?

There's no exit now.

I'll never be able...

to escape from your charms.
